Greece’s National Security: A Digital Swiss Cheese?

Earlier this month, Greece’s National Security Advisor Thanos Dokos ended up speaking with Russian pranksters Vovan & Lexus, believing he was talking to his Ukrainian counterpart.

After the long‑running Predator spyware scandal, where politicians, military officers, senior officials, and journalists were compromised and six years later justice remains unresolved, this new incident exposes something deeper: 

📣 Greece’s national security still operates like a giant megaphone where everyone can hear everyone.

In my recent interview at Militaire News, I break down the Dokos case with a scientific and realistic lens. 

❌ No advanced AI attacks. 

❌ No sophisticated cyber‑operations. 

❗️ Just human error, weak digital hygiene, and publicly exposed information.

These are the key questions I'm investigating:

❓ What mistakes were actually made?

❓ What tools and techniques did the pranksters use?

❓ How easy was it for them to establish contact?

This incident is not just a prank. 

❗ It’s a wake‑up call for Greece’s digital resilience.
